L. Wayne Hicks Social Media Engagement Officer / Digital Producer- Denver Business Journal Denvers taxi industry hit a rough patch last year, with two of the major cab companies reporting a drop in profits and a thirds profits off by more than $700,000 from two years earlier. But none of the three Yellow Cab, Freedom Cabs and Union Taxi Cooperative lost money, and their combined revenue has risen by more than 18 percent since 2009, according to annual financial reports filed with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission. Denvers fourth cab company, Metro Taxi, filed a confidential annual report for 2011 with the PUC, which regulates the industry. Terry Bote, spokesman for the PUC, said Metro isnt required to file a report for public view. Taxi companies routinely file annual reports, but some mark theirs as confidential.
